<em>bad<\/em> for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.<\/p>\n<p>The latest Maru poll, conducted from February 9-10, shows that only 16% of Canadians would vote for the prime minister based on the last two weeks, Edmonton Journal <a href=\"https:\/\/edmontonjournal.com\/news\/politics\/this-could-cost-him-his-job-a-blockaded-canada-turning-on-trudeau-poll-finds\/wcm\/d47e1e09-cbeb-402c-b1d3-e62ed7fc9ef4\">reported<\/a> Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, 44% of respondents said that Trudeau\u2019s latest statements on protesters against vaccine mandates, primarily the Freedom Convoy, have \u201cinflamed\u201d the situation, while 53% said the leader \u201clooked weak in the face of threats to the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe last time I\u2019ve seen numbers even close to this were in the final days of Brian Mulroney,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/edmontonjournal.com\/news\/politics\/this-could-cost-him-his-job-a-blockaded-canada-turning-on-trudeau-poll-finds\/wcm\/d47e1e09-cbeb-402c-b1d3-e62ed7fc9ef4\">slammed<\/a> John Wright, executive vice-president of Maru Public Opinion.&nbsp;\u201cI think this could cost him his job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wright suggested Trudeau\u2019s numbers are tanking because the \u201cCanadian public sees that our democracy is at threat and the very institutions that are supposed to be doing things about it are largely impotent,\u201d adding, \u201cI don\u2019t think the prime minister gets it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But polling shows Canadians are turning hard against COVID-19 mandates and restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA new Angus Reid Institute poll has found that 54 per cent of Canadians now support an immediate end to all COVID restrictions in favour of treating the disease more like the flu,\u201d the journal reported, noting that \u201cthe Trudeau government has resolutely refused to offer anything but minor relaxations to federal strictures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite Trudeau\u2019s recent dismissal of the Freedom Convoy as \u201cfringe,\u201d protesters demanding freedom from heavy-handed COVID-19 restriction and vaccine mandates have become the issue for the leader.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, Trudeau threatened to&nbsp;do \u201cwhatever it takes\u201d to crack down on the freedom protesters blocking passages along the U.S.-Canada border, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/trudeau-promises-to-break-freedom-protests-whatever-it-takes\">The Daily Wire<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrime Minister Justin Trudeau convened the Incident Response Group on the ongoing illegal blockades taking place across the country that are threatening trade, jobs, the economy, and our communities,\u201d a statement from the PM\u2019s office said. \u201cHe was joined by ministers and senior officials who are actively engaged and working closely with provincial and municipal governments, and who are assessing the requirements and deploying all federal resources necessary to help them get the situation under control.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe group committed to continue providing federal resources to support enforcement efforts in Ottawa where the occupation has significantly disrupted local residents\u2019 lives, impacting businesses and families with harassment, threats of violence, and vandalism,\u201d Trudeau\u2019s office continued. \u201cThey reiterated that the federal government has and will continue to respond to all requests for appropriate support and resources.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ontario premier Doug Ford targeted protesters blocking the Ambassador Bridge, too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere will be consequences for these actions, and they will be severe,\u201d Ford <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2022\/feb\/11\/ontario-state-emergency-threatens-fines-jail-time-end-blockade\">threatened<\/a> during the week, accusing protesters of \u201csieging\u201d Ottawa.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/stand-off-authorities-show-up-at-bridge-blockade-freedom-protesters-honk-remember-your-oath\">cracked down<\/a> on the protesters Saturday morning.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, those protesting in Ontario are facing harsh penalties for remaining on the bridge \u2014 including fines up to a whopping $100,000 and a year behind bars.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/freedom-protesters-defy-deadline-continue-blockade-on-ambassador-bridge\">Freedom Protesters Defy Trudeau, Continue
